pipe to rubber pipe to plastic? the plastic pipe approx same length and bore as a biro pen ink holder can we replace this temporarely with a continuous rubber pipe as access is impossible to fit plastic pipe into rubber pipes at each end thanks

Sure, but I wouldn't do it for the metal section, cause it's usually metal to protect that section from heat, or vibration. But the plastic part is just for stiffness.
